Reviews
"For all the talk of the looming digital world and the frightening Posthumans who will inhabit it (perhaps you among them), this is still a storybook that you can hold, written by a palpable presence whose humanity is undeniable." Bookforum, "For all the talk of the looming digital world and the frightening Posthumans who will inhabit it (perhaps you among them), this is still a storybook that you can hold, written by a palpable presence whose humanity is undeniable."  - Bookforum, "Part cultural critique, part portrait of the artist as a young literary revolutionary, the author's latest is a mature look at the rise of e-printing from the vantage point of someone who has already experienced, and survived, a number of technological revolutions. Longtime fans will naturally savor Codrescu's idiosyncratic ambling and real-life reflections. New readers will find philosophical nuggets after some digging."   -Kirkus Reviews, "The result that is Codrescu's writing must be savored, never skimmed, and because of its inventiveness, he actually ends up using his writing style to prove his point: writing and words are evolving forms, but they also possess a fundamental solidity that can't be destroyed, even though the lines are blurring."  - ForeWord Reviews, "The result that is Codrescu's writing must be savored, never skimmed, and because of its inventiveness, he actually ends up using his writing style to prove his point: writing and words are evolving forms, but they also possess a fundamental solidity that can't be destroyed, even though the lines are blurring." ForeWord Reviews, "A challenging and rewarding tour of our new nation, further proving that Codrescu is a unique and necessary writer."  - Bookslut, "(Starred Review) Lucid, clever, and lyrical, Codrescu's delightfully distinctive prose extols a linguistic productive life as he commemorates this vertiginous moment in which the textual world flows from printed form to digital existence." Publisher's Weekly, "A challenging and rewarding tour of our new nation, further proving that Codrescu is a unique and necessary writer."

Synopsis
Award-winning author Andrei Codrescu's Bibliodeath: My Archives (With Life in Footnotes) surveys the evolutionary relationship between language and technology by examining his own career as a prolific American writer for more than four decades. Born in Transylvania, Romania, Codrescu's journey spans from his earliest days as a scattered poet in the 1960s to his founding of the journal Exquisite Corpse in 1983 to his ongoing commentary today on National Public Radio's All Things Considered. Amid the release of some of his most celebrated books, the author's story is an insightful address of the survival of the literate world and the transformation of print, told through suspenseful reflection and alluring, signature footnotes.

    I've bought these from this seller multiple times. They're a very good value, come with both a USB-A and USB-C cable, thermal pad, and good, simple packaging without a lot of wasted space. Seller often includes a handwritten thank you note too! Nice touch! :)

    Item is of excellent quality and operates very good for the purpose I purchased it. The package where it came was a bag with bubble wrap but the item came in perfect condition due to the manufacturer's box. No bends and broken box. The price is excellent. All came very good. I ordered during Christmas eve and arrived as expect. Vendor included me a nice Christmas post card. Lovely detail. A+++ seller. Honest one.
